Nearly our little bubba's 1st birthday! It's been a mad week of crafting (paper cones, cupcake toppers, party games etc), cooking (cupcakes, birthday cake etc) and painting (the pergola that we have been saying we'll paint for a month, and now it's time for the party we're doing the mad rush last minute paint job. Why oh why do we do that??!!) So I haven't been doing any scrapping. In fact, I did 2 pages when I visited Yvettes and that was the last I've done! {smack for being so slack}
What a little sweet-cheeked boy. I did go in and add the date after I took the pic of this page too, it was November 11. That's 6 months ago! {whoosh! Time flying past again}.
Fun stuff on this page: the punched circles (top left) are actually the "negative" left behind from my oversized scalloped edge punch! How awesome to be able to use the "negative" punchout too! The little sticker of the 3 little birds is off our personal Return Address Label. Isn't it the sweetest! And I love those cars on the printed tape.
So almost 2 years ago, I did my Top 5 scrappin items. I remember posting about it, (you can read it HERE), and so it's time I decided my Top 5 again!
So here are the Top 5 things I can't do without on a page at the moment. I must remember to do this every year cos it's fun to see how my likes do or don't change over the years!
1. Patterned Paper-I NEVER use plain cardboard any more. I guess it helps me reach my goal of using up my paper stash!
2. Tape- washi or printed sticky tape. LOVE IT! I was pointing out to Yvette that I don't do pages without a bit of tape on them at the moment! (This page is no exception!)
3. Journalling spots. Yep, still love them!
4. Thickers. Still love them too!
5. Stickers. I like word stickers mainly, which you can see on this page too!
So 2 years ago my Top 5 were:
1. PP
2. Journalling Spots
3. Thickers
4. Rub ons
5. Lace Paper (mostly cos I'm trying to use up my massive stash of this!)
Hmmm... I see a few things repeated there. I think I might have to start using stamps on my pages, or a few more new and interesting things! Time to refresh my scrappin!
What are your Top 5?

Ohy gosh what a gorgeous page. I love that 'love' border you have done. So adorable. My top 5 at the moment are 1. Mists and Masking 2. Washi Tapes 3. Resin Flowers/birds/shapes etc 4. Wooden buttons 5. My punches, especially my border ones and my butterflies. When I get an obsession EVERY page I do has it on there. Ha ha. I also have to photograph my layouts and update my blog, although my darling son broke my laptop cord, so I can't use it, just waiting fort replacement cord. Thanks for your lovely comments. :)
I haven't been scrapping much lately but my top 5 would probably go something like this...
1. PP
2. doilies
3. journalling spot or label sticker
4. book paper or music paper
5. thickers
